Help! I think someone is hacking my account!
Aww, that sucks! But, there are ways we can help.
1. Forumotion kindly gives us software to track your IP address! Go to this site and email me the number separated by periods in blue at the top. If we find a number on your login that varies from what you sent us, we can say for sure if someone has hacked you.
2. HOWEVER, sometimes this hacking happens in your own computer, and we have a different way then. We'll email you a guest account login. If during a month your profile mysteriously logs in, we can definatly say that you've been hacked.
Okay, so what do I do next?
Changing your password and Username usually does the trick, but if not, abandon the account and we'll give you a new one, with a special password that is ranked as hard to crack.
